If "Adapt"

"What are you gonna get today Maxine?""I don't know Patty. The Hay wasn't fresh yesterday. Ask the waitor if it's fresh hay.""I don't know why we come here- we should try a new place." "I could go for chinese.""I hate Chinese." "You're so picky Maxine.""Where's the waitor? He's not getting a good tip today, I tell you.""Pick something already - you drive me crazy."

"Ok, ok. I'll get the hay."Hay- again.""I like hay- what can I tell ya?" "I'll get the hay too.""Where's that waitor?"

At the Bronx Zoo- there are two female Asian elephants named Maxine and Patty. They have shared a habitat for 30+ years. You can see them as you ride the tram in the Asia section. I would visit them each day last summer and imagine their conversations as they threw their lunch of hay around. Two old NY broads stuck together - on each other's nerves but in need of each-other's company too. Adapting to their daily schedule and the monotony it brings.
